Social media is not real socialization anon. It's a one-way interaction between two people. I will hit "Post" after typing this, it will appear on your screen, you will press on my post number, type some words out, and press "post" in response to what I typed. Neither of us are actually engaging in realtime dialogue and social media does not exercise the same parts of the brain that real socialization does. Neither of us know eachothers facial expressions or body language and we're forced to determine tone based entirely on textual context because real social context is ultimately lost when using social media.

the sad truth is that it's the natural state of humanity to mentally conform to the majority opinion and crush those who dare go against groupthink.

Most social media doesn't operate like 4chan. Live chatting is standard for people nowadays.

It's real. You feel it when you post on reddit. The psychological effect of using that site is like somebody is trying to oversocialize you

Same principle. Even with things like zoom chats, neither participant is in the same room with eachother. And yes this difference matters, because real world consequence dictates social conduct which is also lost in these scenarios because both parties are just sitting in their rooms and it reduces the act of socializing down to what is essentially a videogame.

Result of postmodernism where people think culture and dialogue dictate reality. "I think I am a woman therefore I am a woman because woman is a social construct" is oversocialized postmodernist thinking

>>17966351
That's not what oversocialization is nor what postmodernism is

Retarded fake and bizarre term the demiurge invented to insult, terrorize and threaten me who says 6 words every day (if I had perfect agency it would be 0) because God is a retarded tranny who loves satanic reversal/inversion because he's a retarded evil tranny

>>17966362
You think that because you heard the definitions given by postmodernists.

Define "Define"

Must be something useful to get from those interactions, I don't think everything must be bad
